Retinal detachment

This study tests whether a steroid injection given during retinal detachment surgery can replace the usual course of antibiotic and steroid eye drops afterward. About 168 adults with a first-time retinal detachment will receive either the injection or standard drops. The goal is …

This trial tests whether a modified soft contact lens placed on the cornea during vitrectomy, a surgery for retinal disease, keeps the surgical view clearer than the standard method of intermittent saline irrigation. Researchers randomly assign 46 participants to receive either t…

This study tests whether pneumatic retinopexy, a procedure that injects a gas bubble into the eye, can successfully reattach a detached retina without traditional surgery. Researchers will follow 33 adults with a specific type of retinal detachment for two years, tracking how oft…

This trial tests whether a steroid injection given about a week before surgery can reduce harmful inflammation and scarring in people with retinal detachment. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the injection plus standard surgery or surgery alone. The study meas…

This trial is testing whether a piece of the patient's own eye tissue, called Tenon's capsule, can help close large or recurrent macular holes—tears in the center of the retina that can blur or distort vision. During standard vitrectomy surgery, the tissue is harvested and placed…

This study looked at whether early surgery (vitrectomy) or waiting with ultrasound monitoring is better for people with sudden, dense bleeding inside the eye. The goal was to see if early surgery could lower the chance of the retina detaching. Only 8 adults with recent bleeding f…

This study tested whether nepafenac 0.1% eye drops, given before surgery, can lower inflammation in people with retinal detachment. Sixty-one adults used the drops or a placebo for five days before surgery. Researchers measured inflammatory markers in the eye fluid. The goal is t…

This study tests whether a blood test can help doctors tell apart uveitis caused by lymphoma from other types of uveitis. Uveitis is an eye inflammation that can lead to vision loss, and in some cases it is a sign of a rare eye lymphoma that may spread to the brain. The researche…

This study is testing a new eye imaging device called the VG200D, which uses advanced technology to take detailed pictures of the eye. Researchers want to see if it works as well as a standard device for measuring parts of the eye in people with glaucoma, retina problems, corneal…

This early study tested a tiny dexamethasone insert placed in the tear duct of 15 children after retinal surgery or laser treatment. The goal was to see if it could safely reduce pain and eye inflammation. Researchers measured pain using a standard scale and tracked any side effe…

This early-phase study tested a single dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex) in 10 people with uveal melanoma who had fluid buildup under the retina after radiation treatment. The goal was to see if the implant is safe and can help reduce the fluid to prevent vision loss. The implant i…

This study tested whether playing slow tempo music before and during an eye injection (intravitreal injection) can reduce anxiety and pain. 144 adults took part, with half listening to music and the other half receiving standard care. Researchers measured anxiety using saliva tes…

This study tests a microscope that has an OCT scanner built directly into it, allowing surgeons to take detailed cross-sectional images of the eye during surgery. The goal is to see if this setup is practical and whether the extra visual information helps guide surgical decisions…

This trial tests a new device called P200TxE that takes detailed images of the back of the eye. Researchers want to see how well it captures images in people with retinal diseases like glaucoma or macular degeneration. The study involves adults aged 22 and older who have been dia…

This study tested whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help doctors detect retinal diseases from ultra-widefield eye images. 462 images were read by four eye doctors with different experience levels, both with and without AI assistance. The goal was to see if AI improves accu…

This study looked at 78 people in Pakistan who had surgery for a detached retina. Doctors compared two types of fillers used inside the eye after surgery—gas or silicone oil—to see if one caused more shifting of the retina afterward. The goal was to learn how the choice of filler…

This study followed 609 nearsighted adults who had lens surgery to see if a natural eye change called posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) affects their risk of retinal detachment. Participants were grouped by whether they had PVD before surgery or not, and were monitored for up t…

This study looked at 202 people who had surgery for retinal detachment, a condition where the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye pulls away. Researchers used high-resolution eye scans and vision tests to see how the eye heals over a year. The goal was to better understa…

This completed study looked at fluid samples from the eyes of 137 people undergoing surgery for retinal detachment or other eye conditions. Researchers measured fats and proteins in these fluids to understand inflammation and cell death that can harm vision after surgery. The goa…
